Urban stormwater and snowmelt runoff has become a primary source of pollution in receiving water bodies (e.g., rivers, lakes and oceans), causing eutrophication, harmful algae blooms and hypoxia and many other environmental issues. It is therefore imperative to study pollutant loadings from urban...
